Welcome to Go Love Yourself! It’s the show where we’re all learning to love ourselves a little more 💖 Laura Adlington (left, 2020 GBBO Finalist) and her best friend Lauren Smith (right) grew up in the 90s and 00s when low rise jeans were high fashion, Bridget Jones was the poster fat girl and diet culture was rife. Now, we’re unlearning everything we’ve been taught about body image, acceptance and confidence, and this podcast takes you along for the ride! From self-love, to the other kind of self love (wink wink nudge nudge) we’re here to help you feel happier, more confident, and part of the best community on the internet. Join us EVERY TUESDAY as we talk about everything from diet culture to dating, mental health to social media, fashion and giving zero f***s about what people think..

S1 Ep13: Why We Broke Up With Slimming Clubs
Season 1 · Episode 13
Monday, April 11, 2022 • Duration 43:28
Nothing screams diet-binge cycle quite like slimming clubs! We've both been to diet clubs close to 10 times each, so we know what it's like. They might work for a handful of people, but for the rest of us, they're TOXIC and destroy our relationships with food. They place moral value on foods, shame us if we put on weight, and charge us a fortune in the meantime. We don't know what the answer is, but we know our experiences with slimming clubs have impacted our relationships with our bodies for the worse - and we know we're not the only ones.

S1 Ep12: Intuitive Movement with Tally Rye
Season 1 · Episode 12
Monday, April 4, 2022 • Duration 48:57
We don't know about you, but exercise has ALWAYS been made to feel like punishment. Like the only way we can be worthy is by eating less and moving more. Exercise can be incredible for mental health and stress relief, but it's hard to untangle that from allll the diet culture bullshit. Tally Rye created intuitive movement, inspired by the concept of intuitive eating. It's all about re-learning what it is your body actually wants, as opposed to what you think you should be doing, according to diet culture. So this week she joined us to explain what intuitive movement is, and how we can improve our relationships with exercise.

This month the UK Government are introducing regulations that say all large restaurants and cafes have to start displaying calories on menus.

We also chat about alternatives that could genuinely help. Feel free to hit us up for a chat, Boris...
